Loss of deuterium in faecal solids and by sequestration in reindeer: effect on doubly labelled water studies

Loss of deuterium in faecal solids and by sequestration in reindeer: effect on doubly labelled water studies

An underlying assumption when estimating total energy expenditure (TEE) using doubly labelled water (DLW) is that the injected isotopes (lsO and 2H) leave the body only in the form of CO, and H20. However, both isotopes have additional routes of loss. We quantified the loss of 2H (i) attached to fae...
